Breadcrumbed curry chicken breasts
This recipe needs advance preparation!
We had half a pot of Greek yogurt going to waste in the fridge so I thought of an idea to use it up. Although it looks dry without a sauce, the chicken was so juicy that it was fine without.
If you wanted to cook the marinade to use as a sauce, make sure it is properly cooked as it has been in contact with raw chicken. The best way would be to put it in a dish in the oven with the chicken.
I use Cock Brand green curry paste - It's brilliant because it can be frozen so it keeps forever. Even better, you can still scoop out a tablespoon of paste while it is still frozen.
